TORIES GOLDEN ERA WITH CHINA FOR WHOM - UPDATE: 14 Nov., 2019

Update 14 Nov., 2019 - May resigned in June and Boris Johnson became PM in July but he is even worse. He tried to close down Parliament but was overruled by the Courts. He got a Brexit agreement with EU but was down voted by House of Common because it has a Custom check at the Irish Sea which is against Good Friday Agreement. Now he decided to have a General Election on 12 Dec., 2019

British Steel is planned to be sold to China. TATA the present owner will cut over 1,000 jobs.

Trump plans to have a TTIP with UK whereby UK has to lower its Food Standard to accept USA clorinated chicken and hormon injected beef; it also includes NHS. Johnson agrees to all that.

Update 6 Nov.,  2016 -- The new PM Theresa May none the  better, since she went to China. She confirmed contracts for the two Nuclear Power Stations in the UK, which nobody wants, involving 80,000 tonnes of steel, and the move of the car plant Rover MG to China.  

Both a heavy loss of thousands of tonnes of steel to British Steel.

An insult to all steel workers who lost their job and to the Nation which lost their Steel Industry Mr Cameron called it an "Golden Era". How could he and how dare he?

UPDATE: 24 Oct., 2015 -
A deal was signed to build two nuclear power stations; most probably with Chinese Steel. EDF the French Government Electricity company will built it and most probably run it. The profit goes into the French Government.  

Well done PM David Cameron. He could have saved British Steel by stopping Chinese import. That deal stinks of everything that is moral. What else did he sell to the Chinese?

It is strange that by co-incident the British Steelworks got into trouble because the foreign owners pulled out, as the Chinese President arrived in London and after clever-boy George Osborne went to China.  Such an co-incident!!!!!!!!!

Cameron announced a “Golden Era” began between the UK and China. There are several criticisms against the “Golden Era” heralded by Cameron.

The reality is, he hopes China invest 30 per cent in the new building of a Nuclear Power Station and also partly finances the luxury train HS2. 

Although the Chinese president Xi Jinping signed an agreement on his second day of his visit he pointed out that details will be worked out when he returns to China. Already a great protest broke out in China against President Xi Jinping's visit to the UK.

Chinese economy was part of the collapse in recent months and they lost heavily on their share value. It also reflected in the collapse of British Steel because they flooded the UK and Europe with cheaper precede steel. The price of steel dropped from £330 to £180 per ton.

China will try to sell their steel even more aggressively to boost their economy but it is the UK which has not to buy it. Germany and France nationalised their steel industry to safeguard it. Why can not the UK do it?

China produces 1.6billion tons a year.

There are also great critics of China for its large consuming of wildlife products – ivory – tiger body parts and rhino horns for the medical and decoration. 2011 a report by International Foundation for Animals Welfare revealed “rampart illegal ivory trade” which led to a crackdown.

Prince William gave a speech on Chinese network CCTVs urging the people to stop buying illegal animal parts. It reached 100 million people.

Campaigners appeal to David Cameron regarding Chinese human rights records – such as repression of other minorities, detaining human rights lawyers and restriction on freedom of worship.

Hong Kong activist Joshua Wong protested against China plans to intervene in HK election last year.  He told David Cameron he can not trust the Chinese assurance on HK if it is given during the week’s visit.

Wong said: “My message to David Cameron is that China has not kept its promise to the people of HK to deliver universal suffrage, so how can you trust Mr Xi to keep his word on the trade deal signed this week.”

Mind you Mr Xi Jinping, if it is the fact, is not worse than PM David Cameron who never keeps his word.

China was accused of cyber-attacks on other countries. Therefore it is feared they can use commercial deals with Britain to spy on companies.

China seems to be the perfect trade’s people.  When they show their cards they always had an alternative motive and advantage in their deals.

Sky’s economist editor Ed Conway points out the possibility of losing the closed contact with the US which already cooled down since the UK joined China’ Asia Infrastructure investing Bank which is a rival to the World Bank. Is David Cameron trying to play a double sided political game? If so he will crash-land where China is concerned. They buy and sell him before he can say Hello.

Again David Cameron is selling out his people rather than offend the Chinese. A 60 years campaign to receive the deserved medal for 1949 China Yangtze River is being held back just for hat reason, The Sun reported.

The HMS Concord destruction “played a vital role in guiding crippled HMS Ametyst away from the Chinese guns”, the paper says, but the navy men never got their medals. Now, even Work and Pension Secretary Ian Duncan Smith agrees and is joined by the Ministry of Defence for not to cause trouble with Beijing.

That is really marvellous. None of these ‘men’ had ever any hard times leave alone fighting in s war; yet they decide to withhold medals which the brave navy men fought for their country with all the sacrifices.

The real reason is to get their H2S train financed. The Tories are not worried either about the Steel Industry. They are so callous that they do not accept a payment from the EU to save the steel industry because it would stop their repay.  Why? Where does the repay go?

Again they show the Tories do anything to get their projects done. It is sickening to know that we have to live under such a Government which is utterly and completely self-centred and step over anybody of the public.

JOBLESS PEOPLE GOT BAD TREATMENT -- Updated 20 June, 2014




UPDATED:  20 June 2014 -  it would be interesting to find out how many jobless people did get a job after they volunteered during the Olympics?



Dozens of people were willing and volunteered as unpaid stewards for the river pageant on Sunday. They were hoping this would lead up to a paid job at the Olympics.

Their coaches came arriving two hours earlier than expected. It was a dreadful weather on Sunday. Cold, windy and raining. The volunteers had no other choice but to bed down under the bridges.

The ex-Deputy PM Lord Prescott pointed out that the treatment of the volunteers is “totally unacceptable” He stated further:”I am deeply concerned that a private security firm is not only providing policing on the cheap but show duty and care to its staff.” He demanded further, from Home Secretary Theresa May to find out if it broke security industry rules.

One steward said:”It was cold and wet and we were told to get our heads down.”
This is an absolute disgrace.

The security firm Close Protection UK admitted to the blunder and apologised to them forced to wait. They, however, had the nerve to state: “We are not in the business of exploiting anyone.”

Now how about that statement. There will be very few people who buy it.

Lord Prescott won’t it rest at that. He demanded an inquiry. Gail Cartmail, of the union Unite, said: “They were just damped there in London. Taking advantage of people's desperation to find work is despicable. There needs to be an investigation to ensure there is no repeat of this during the Olympics.”

However, Lord Prescott is known to follow things through and this time the Home Secretary Theresa May won’t get off the hook until he has a satisfactorily answer and put it right for the people.

It is a shame that such beautiful river pageant had to be marred by greed again.

DAVID CAMERON'S ELECTION MANIFESTO PROMISES 2010 Updated 1March 2014


UPDATE:  1 March 2014 -- It was revealed that six letters where David Cameron promised vital changes and the promises were never held; were taken off the Internet.  They can only be found in the British Library.  One -  was about data transparency; second - protection of the NHS ; third -  regarding Maternity service; fourth - avoid to be a Surveillance state; fifth - Bill of rights; six -- promise justice and not accepting Human Rights Law. 
All the rest of David Cameron's promises it is doubtful any of them were kept.

In February 2010 David Cameron pledged: “Lobbying is the next big scandal to happen. It’s an issue that crosses party lines and tainted our politics far too long. We believe in competition, not cronyism. So we must be the party that sorts this out”.

Fine words but with hind sights the party did not sort it out on the contrary there are too many scandals in the two years the Conservatives and Lib-Dem are in power.

Not only did they not sort it out but tarnished their reputation even more. There was Conservative Treasury Peter Cruddas selling for donation access to the Prime Minister. The access surely wasn’t just to find out how the weather was. 

At Public Affairs Bell Pottinger films were made where bosses promised to be able to contact the Premier Minister and his team who would then bring favours about for their clients. Now this again bosses wouldn't have promised if they weren't sure of a contact. Their clients are big business people to whom a promise is not made that lightly.

The former Defence Secretary Liam Fox had to resign because he had a secret adviser Adam Werritty with defence contacts. At first Mr Cameron done everything to stand by Liam Fox in order to avoid his resignation but at the end under public pressure he had to let Liam Fox go. The moment Liam Fox left his post you never heard anything more about him and especially Adam Werritty.

Then there was the case of Mr Coulson who was a Chief Executive at the News of the World and had to resign over the phone-hacking scandal. No sooner did he leave his post he was employed as – you never guess – Communication Secretary at 10 Downing Street. Talking about putting the cat amongst the pigeon. This is an incredible judgement by the Prime Minister David Cameron. Now the man was in a top job where all the secret documents and communication were going through. When all this  emerged Mr Coulson had to resign again  only under public pressure.
